Hikvision Upgrade Breaks ONVIF VMS Integration

By: Ethan Ace, Published on Oct 31, 2017

Hikvision IP cameras using ONVIF for VMS integration will break when upgrading to Hikvision new 5.5 firmware, IPVM testing has verified.

This continues a series of quiet changes Hikvision has made to fix security problems that are simultaneously undermining customer usability.

In this report, we test the issues involved, show what happens with the new firmware and how this impacts Hikvision support for 3rd parties.
